A "Short" History

Did you know that shorts originated in France before the French Revolution? Back then they were only for young boys. Then, during World War II, a little tea shop in Bermuda was looking for a comfortable uniform for the staff. The hot climate and the steamy kitchen made for dangerously high temperatures and an almost unbearable work environment. The owner's solution was to cut off the legs of the khaki pants just above the knee. The style caught on, and by the post-war era, it had spread all the way to America where Bermuda shorts are still a wardrobe staple.

So Many Choices

Casual shorts come in lots of styles, like high-waisted shorts, athletic and active shorts, and Bermuda. Fabrics are as varied as the styles. Denim shorts stand the test of time, a perennial and versatile favorite. Cotton is a top choice, available in solids, plaids, floral prints, and more. Athletic shorts come in assorted synthetics and a rainbow of colors.

Whether you're heading to the beach or the park or you're just hanging out at home, casual shorts are a great choice. You can make casual shorts outfits complete with a favorite T-shirt, tank top, or blouse. Choose sneakers or sandals to complete your warm-weather look. If you like to run or hit the gym, keep several pairs on hand so you're ready to work up a sweat in style.
